It is very important to register before the tournament and have a proof of membership on you during the check-in process. There will be an OJA registration table but we highly recommend to do this prior to the event to prevent tournament delays.

2. ALL adult divisions will be SINGLE-ELIMINATION. Kids divisions will stay DOUBLE-ELIMINATION.

All weigh-ins will take place all day. Adult Competitors are expected to be checked-in, weighed-in, warmed up and ready to compete 1 hour prior to their scheduled division.

Competitors weigh-in WITH THE GI ON.

We tolerate a 1 pound allowance.

It is the athlete’s responsibility to be on weight and make sure they are registered in the correct weight division, rank, and team on the competitor list.
In the occurrence that an athlete cannot make weight, he/she should contact us immediately before the registration MODIFICATION/CORRECTION deadline (Wednesday before the tournament).

The day of the tournament, we will no longer accept registration corrections, athletes who fail to make weight will be disqualified with no refund.
